If you know nothing about art or love art, our Chelsea Art Gallery Tours are a fun and casual way to explore a great part of the city while socializing and making new friends and connections.

This is the first time in almost 2 years we’ve been able to offer a Chelsea Gallery tour, in the world’s epicenter for contemporary art!  It will be an ALL-NEW tour that will include: (1) an Icelandic artist’s room-filling re-creation of a volcanic eruption, though smell, sound and room vibrations, (2) a Latino artist’s enormous and affecting carved alabaster stone sculptures, and (3) an Israeli artist’s startling photographs on shattered glass, among 7 EXCEPTIONAL exhibits.  All galleries will require masks, and some may require proof of vaccination.
With over 300 art galleries in Chelsea, our Gallery Tour led by Rafael Risemberg with a Ph.D. in arts education  finds the most innovative art, and leads you on an insightful, entertaining and affordable journey through the contemporary art scene. Rafael explains the art in ways that makes the experience meaningful to those who don’t know a lot about art as well as those who do.
